9th November 1989, East Berlin, the day the Berlin Wall will fall: Bernd Zeiger, a Stasi agent, is now in the fading twilight of his career. Twenty five years earlier: a physicist, Johannes Held, had been sent by the East Germans to infiltrate a US military operation in the American desert. Held had unknowingly fathered a child there, a fact Zeiger was aware of, and when he returned and refused to divulge what he had learned despite being tortured, Zeiger strangely became a sort of friend. But he would still betray him, a treachery that haunts him to this day.

1941: almost four million Nazi troops marched on Moscow, with a brutal scorched-earth tactic that saw millions of Soviet citizens massacred. A level of brutality only paralleled after the Soviet's triumphed at Stalingrad and took mindless revenge as they marched back into Berlin. Beginning with Operation Barbarossa, the German invasion of the Soviet Union in June 1941, to the appalling circumstances of the Fall of Berlin in April 1945 and told from the perspective of the people of Russia and Eastern Europe, Barbarossa is a heartrending story of tragedy, suffering and heroism.
